Re: [PATCH net-next 02/15] ipv6: add dev->gso_ipv6_max_size

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

This enable TCP stack to build TSO packets bigger than
64KB if the driver is LSOv2 compatible.

This patch introduces new variable gso_ipv6_max_size
that is modifiable through ip link.

ip link set dev eth0 gso_ipv6_max_size 185000

User input is capped by driver limit.
